cucubits Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Thought of making a little corner for all the gearheads, driving fans, to hang out and talk cars. Every forum should have one of these 🙂 This time I won't start as I'm "between cars" at the moment. I just traded in my previous one a few weeks ago and waiting patiently for the new delivery which should be in about two months. I'll post more details along the way but for now I just wanted to get a ball rolling 🚗 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reciever Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Im still fixing up my bucket. RSX Base Auto, luckily most things on it are pretty straight forward to work on but resolving p0505 / p1077 / p1078 has been the bane of my existence these last few months. 1 Telegram / TS3 / Twitter 2700X to 5800X3D upgrade!

cucubits Posted January 24, 2022 Author Share Posted January 24, 2022 Oh nice, I've liked the RSX a lot ever since NFS Underground 🙂 I used to dream about getting one some day but it was never the right time and now I've put all my car-piggy-bank in one place.

That's almost 911 territory and you could swipe it for your enjoyment from time to time 😁 Forgot I made a video on my car lol: She's not into cars. All she told me was I want a Porsche in the future. I told her Taycan it is, it's an EV. She saw the frozen berry color and is set on it now lol. Originally I wanted her to get one with premium package and some other stuff (107k) but that's just an insane amount of $$$. We settled on just a few features at $83.7k which is much cheaper than the others. Of course this was supposed to be a car she gets in like 5 years. But with the accident she really really wants to fix the 330Ci even if we have to salvage it. I did tell her if we get a decent amount I can put a hefty down payment and we can just get the porsche now lol. Here's her current car after the accident. I already talked to my BMW mechanic. It needs airbag, wheel, tire, corner turning light and strut tower mount. Of course insurance will probably find more things that "need" to fix and consider it totaled.

ccvortex Posted January 24, 2022 Share Posted January 24, 2022 Just picked up a 2022 Subaru Wilderness. Wanted an off-road'ish vehicle for camping/hunting but also has good tech and can double as a family hauler. The turbo Boxer engine is pretty peppy too. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HWI Posted January 25, 2022 Share Posted January 25, 2022 I drive an old 2006 Silverado 2500HD Duramax, lifted on 35's. She's got over 200k miles, but is still trucking along without issue. I've thought about selling it, but the new diesel truck prices are outrageous and it's nice not having a payment on it. My wife drives an Explorer ST, they are a pretty fun family vehicle, all wheel drive and 400hp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

User Posted January 31, 2022 Share Posted January 31, 2022 Lots of nice cars in here! I am still chugging along in a 2004 Pontiac Vibe my late Grandpa gave me around 2015. 126,000 miles and very reliable! Within the year I hope to scoop up my roommate's father's 2013 Subaru BRZ with ~60,000 miles. In the past I had a Toyota MR2 and a Nissan 300ZX and I really miss having a 'fun' manual car. I think the BRZ would do it for me. 2 PowerSpec 1720 (PB70EF-G) | i7-8750H | 32GB 3000MHz DDR4 | RTX 2070 8GB 115W | 144Hz G-SYNC Spoiler -163 mV core & cache | 15-18-18-36 1T @ 1.35V | 1905MHz @ .975mV & 1950MHz GDDR6 Disabled: TVB, VMX Stress, RDB, HDC Tuned with: ThrottleStop, MSi Afterburner | TIM: SYY 157 Insyde H2OUVE BIOS Unlock | CB R20 - 3172 | CB R23 - 8164/1105 | CPU Prof. Max - 4702 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Custom90gt Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I'd love to pick up another Subaru WRX STI since it was such a fun little car (I had a 2007 STI Limited that I regret selling). My wife is next in line to get a new car though, thankfully she wants a CT5-V (sadly not the blackwing, lol), but that will be a fun car. I often drive her 2013 Cadillac ATS with the 3.6, it's pretty fun and super comfortable. Ugh then I really want a Ford Bronco Raptor, lol...

Ionising_Radiation Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 Been driving our BMW G20 318i for exactly a year now. 11000 km on it so far. It's mostly city driving, so we average around 11.5 km/l. Dream cars are the facelifted M5 Competition to smoke others at the traffic signals, and the Audi A8L to float in a cloud. I wouldn't buy them where I live, though; they'd cost half a million dollars after tax. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

saturnotaku Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 I traded my 2020 Acura ILX last year because it made 5 unscheduled service trips to the dealer in 11 months. My wife wanted a second SUV anyway so I got a 2020 GMC Terrain that I think the dealer wanted rid of because I got over $7500 off MSRP. It has a heated steering wheel, and now I will never buy another vehicle without one. 1 Desktop: Ryzen 5 5600X3D | 32 GB RAM | GeForce RTX 4070 Super | 4 TB SSD | Windows 11 Gigabyte Aorus 16X: Core i7-14650HX | 32 GB RAM | GeForce RTX 4070 | 2 TB SSD | Windows 11 Lenovo IdeaPad 3 Gaming: Ryzen 7 6800H | 16 GB RAM | GeForce RTX 3050 | 512 GB SSD | Windows 11 Lenovo IdeaPad 5 Pro: Ryzen 5 5600U | 16 GB RAM | Radeon Graphics | 512 GB SSD | Windows 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cucubits Posted February 9, 2022 Author Share Posted February 9, 2022 I'm going to post my wife's Beetle. My new car should arrive only in April and I traded the previous one in already. We love this little bug, we've even been on cross country ski trips with it. It's a blast to drive and we love the color! It's a 2018, the year before the last ones ever made... Still sad they stopped making these. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
